"I missed you." Fu Hua said as he kissed Feng Alix's shoulder cape.
They were currently lying in each other's arms after their love affair. Because Feng Alix had her back to him, he was able to lie and hug her from behind.
"Do you miss me or the s*x?." Feng Alix asked as she turned her body to face him.
Fu Hua chuckled softly as he used his fingers to move her hair away from her face. "Of course I missed both."
"Now I believe you." Feng Alix said with a smile as she hugged him.
Fu Hua returned the hug as well. "Sleep." He whispered to her.
"Are you going to disappear just like usual by the time I wake up?." Feng Alix asked with her gaze on him.
Fu Hua let her go as he explained. "You know I'm very busy with the upcoming Autumn show. And my grandfather just came back so things are going to be pretty busy."
"I know. How is your grandfather doing?." Feng Alix asked?
"He is doing great. Now get some sleep." Fu Hua said as he patted her shoulder.
"Knowing I won't see you when I wake up, I don't feel like sleeping anymore. I want to spend some time with you." Feng Alix said to him as they locked gazes.
"Okay. So, what do you want to talk about?." Fu Hua said as he finally gave in to her.
"How was your trip?. You've not told me about your encounter at that place." Feng Alix inquired in a curious tone.
Speaking of his encounter in the remote countryside, Fu Hua remembered somebody, a pretty soul.
"There is nothing special at that place." Fu Hua replied after waving the flashbacks away.
"At least you could tell me something." Feng Alix insisted.
"Alix, why do you not want to listen to what I'm saying? There is nothing to talk about. YingPei and I went there to take care of my grandfather till he was willing to come home. The city can never be compared to the countryside." Fu Hua said.
"Heh! Take it easy. I just wanted to know about your adventure. You are my boyfriend, remember?." Feng Alix said to him with her eyes glued on his face.
"I know. I think I have to go now, see you some other time." Fu Hua said with a slight smile on his face before moving the sheets off his naked body.
He got out of bed and got dressed in his clothes.
"Why are you leaving now? Are you unhappy with me because I asked questions to know how you coped while looking after your grandfather?." Feng Alix asked as she sat up on the bed with the sheets hiding her naked body.
"Alix, my leaving now has nothing to do with that. I don't want to argue with you because I have other things want to spend my time on." Fu Hua said as he buttoned his shirt.
"Fu Hua, most times I don't get you. Your acting this way makes me think that something actually happened to you in the countryside." Feng Alix said to him.
"Don't question me that way! You are my girlfriend and not my mother. See you…" Fu Hua said as he took his jacket and walked away from the room.
Feng Alix threw a pillow towards him, but that was after his back disappeared from her view. She pulled at her hair in anger before burying her face in-between her legs.
Fu Hua drove into the night back to the Fu Villa. Everybody had already gone to bed except for his father who was sitting in the living room with a magazine in his hand.
Fu Hua was surprised to see him, but then he maintains a normal facial expression as he walked towards him.
"Dad, you're still awake?." He asked.
Looking up at his son, Fu Lei replied, "I was waiting for you."
"You have something you want to talk to me about?." Fu Hua asked as he took a seat on another couch.
"Do you have plans of settling down any soon?." Fu Lei asked as he folded the fashion magazine which belonged to the company Fu Hua was the Chief Executive Officer, of…
"Why the sudden the question?." Fu Hua asked.
"I'm asking because I want to know your plans. You will be 30 towards the end of next month." Fu Lei replied with his gaze on him. He had a serious facial expression.
"My age doesn't mean anything. I have no plans of settling down soon. I want to continue giving my attention to work." Fu Hua replied.
"Your goals are not bad, but you need to start thinking about how to settle down before somebody assists you with it. Do you have a girlfriend at the least?." Fu Lei asked.
"None." Fu Hua replied almost immediately.
"Then where are you coming back from looking that way. Don't get me wrong, I know you are an adult." Fu Lei asked.
Because Fu Hua left his girlfriend's place in a hurry, he didn't comb his hair, and his shirt looked rumpled.
"I went to hang out. The Autumn show will be coming up soon, and I am already under a lot of work pressure." Fu Hua replied.
"I get it. Because you had to take care of your grandfather, you have a lot of work piled up that needs to be taken care of. One piece of advice to you, if you have a girlfriend, do introduce her to us as soon as possible." Fu Lei gave him a pointer before resuming back to the magazine he was reading.
"I will, thank you!." Fu Hua replied before standing up and walking away.
Fu Hua walked into his spacious bedroom. He turned on the lights before walking into his bathroom. He took a shower and changed into his nightclothes, before letting his head hit the pillow.
As he laid on his bed, flashbacks from the countryside came to his thoughts. Without knowing, he was thinking about all his interactions with Jia Li.
Feng Alix on the other hand wrapped herself up with the sheets with her fingers making a fist.
"Maybe I shouldn't have raised that question again, now he is angry with me." Feng Alix said to herself in frustration.
